Fri, 11 Oct 2013 06:35:55 +0000http://prohockeytalk.nbcsports.com/?p=2298554#comment-234411The reason this got reported is cuz Thorton interrupted Marleau’s scum by intitially saying to a reporter “Shut up, have you ever played the game?” Then he continued on about how he’d celebrate scoring 4 goals. Joe introduced himself into this without invitation or provocation and he should have expected it would be quoted. Joe is hardly the victim here, he’s a man and the Sharks PR department shouldn’t be blaming the Vancouver media for their veteran player’s big, immature, crass mouth.

Blomfeld: who is ‘he’ being assailed by these sick soldiers from the fort ?

Ten Bears: I believe it’s our brother Pale Devil ?

Crazy Dog: yeah, well whatever … like does this guy even know where the chicks are at ?

Blomfeld: rest assured brother, armies of women await us … in the meantime we must help this man …

Fri, 11 Oct 2013 03:08:26 +0000http://prohockeytalk.nbcsports.com/?p=2298554#comment-234372Masturbation: The sexual stimulation of one’s own genitals, usually to the point of orgasm. The stimulation can be performed using the hands, fingers, everyday objects, or dedicated sex toys. Studies have found that masturbation is frequent in humans of both sexes and all ages, although there is variation. Various medical and psychological benefits have been attributed to a healthy attitude to sex in general and to masturbation in particular. No causal relationship is known between masturbation and any form of mental or physical disorder. In fact today, certain NHL players scoring ‘four or more’ goals in a hockey game are known to have practiced this act with impudence.

Fri, 11 Oct 2013 02:46:35 +0000http://prohockeytalk.nbcsports.com/?p=2298554#comment-234363I don’t even care about the “ethical journalism” angle on this. The important thing is that this is easily the funniest thing I’ve seen a player say in years, and I’m glad Botchford reported it for that reason alone.

Fri, 11 Oct 2013 02:44:04 +0000http://prohockeytalk.nbcsports.com/?p=2298554#comment-234361Please explain how this is newsworthy. Do you have any idea how much talk of this type goes on in a locker room? And believe me, the talk is often a LOT worse than what Joe Thornton said. What, about that comment, had any news value? Did it effect how he or the team is playing? Absolutely not. It had nothing to do with how the team is doing and was only printed to make Joe look bad, which didn’t work either cuz most people think it was funny.

Teams allow reporters a LOT of access to every day affairs. Part of that agreement is that a LOT of stuff they see is ignored/unreported because it has no significance to the team’s play on the ice. And if reporters want to break that trust and print nonsensical stuff that should stay in house they should just have their access taken away. The players have a right to the locker room as their sanctuary where they can be themselves and not have to worry about stuff leaking out and this reporter is an A-Hole for breaking that trust.

Thu, 10 Oct 2013 23:08:29 +0000http://prohockeytalk.nbcsports.com/?p=2298554#comment-234322Blaming Joe is mistaking the problem – players talk like that in the locker room all the time. Seriously, that’s tame as hell. It’s the reporter’s job to f*cking THINK a little about what parts should be published and what parts cut out. It’s called “editing.” Pretty basic requirement of professional journalism. Apparently the hacks at The Province believe differently.

Thu, 10 Oct 2013 22:49:35 +0000http://prohockeytalk.nbcsports.com/?p=2298554#comment-234318Typical Vancouver behavior. It’s the hockey/media culture in Vancouver to cheer for the home team and practice shoddy journalism when it comes to the rest of the league. There’s absolutely no news value to this and it’s just a reporter trying to make a guy they don’t like look bad. Total rubbish, but on the other hand a great line by Thornton.

However remembering the Canucks play last year they definitely earned the right to be opposed to forced sodomy or being made to look fools!

Thu, 10 Oct 2013 22:19:19 +0000http://prohockeytalk.nbcsports.com/?p=2298554#comment-234306Haha- some vulgar locker room talk. I can’t believe a paper would print this- on or off the record. Honestly- I think it has to do with standing up for Hertl and deflecting some of the ‘old school’ mentality being thrown his way. Burns made a comment about how if he scored for he would have been ‘naked’ for his celebration. I’m sure its just a locker room joke that keeps escalating. Hope Joe scores four- that would create some controversy for Oates.
